Subject:ID Japanese Vase makers marks
Posted By: sharon smith Sun, Oct 18, 2020 IP: 47.138.107.4

I have two Japanese vases that are designed the same but the marks are different. I am trying to determine if they were made by family members as the marks are also very similar?

The marks are just serial or ID numbers. It is difficult to understand for outsiders
Upper pic,
〇十三  - 〇13
Lower pic,
十三 八 - 13 8

With regards,
I.Nagy

These are not names, but numbers.
First picture: ? 十 三 (? 10 3).
Second picture: 十 三 八 (10 3 8).
These kind of number markings are typical on Kyoto Satsuma items (like yours) from the 1930's.
Regards,
Martin.
